he loves her.

Well, Kaden LOVED the puppy! Introducing the newest addition to the Lundeen family: JAZZY. And the scavenger hunt we set up went perfectly. He thought my dad set up some lame way to get him excited about getting a new lawnmower to be used immediately on our overgrown front yard.

I pretended I had nothing to do with it, wrote Kade's name on every envelope the same way my dad writes (all capital letters, and with his name spelled with a 'K'), and stuffed every envelope with grass from our lawn. I went with him as we scavenged away and searched where no man has ever dared go (our neighbor's perfectly groomed front lawn, for example). We ended in the boat garage, where Cole sat with the puppy, exhausted and lonely. When Kaden came in, her ears perked up, and her head spun around to seen him staring in confusion at her. When we told him what breed she was he flipped. He LOVES her. SUCCESS!

Now, the singing in church, on the other hand, may or may not have been less successful. I got sick the final days approaching the sacrament meeting (thanks "Airborne", and "Emergen-C", and multivitamins, and vitamin C tablets that I downed 5 times a day), and therefore, my voice was less than up to par with the other beautiful songs.

Cole learned the hard way that he will not be volunteering his wife for future events.
